Imo, if we want to go the Belichick route, why not give Brian Flores a shot. Great defensive coach and is key on accountability (little things in general). I will say he's probably not the best coach for a young QB though haha.

Would still prefer Ben Johnson, but just wanted to bring up alternatives.

While I wouldn’t choose Brady, I applaud the sentiment.

The Saints will have to take a chance on a young OC

Not saying it is. But that’s why he’s the betting favorite when there isn’t much else to go on.

I know many have said they don't want Belichick, and I do understand with the age, and not saying he would even think about us, but he would likely require to be GM too. Gets rid of the biggest problem.


BB hasn’t really had talented rosters towards the end of his career though. He greatly propped up by having arguably the best qb of all time.

John Gruden, He was a consultant before season and he has worked with Carr. And Carr is horrible, Saints are cuffed to him for the next 2 years.

Surprised Brady is over Ben but I get it. Of course the draft day melts would be great if it’s Brady and the team still doesn’t go out of their way to draft LSU players.

Odd seeing Saban, Grubb and Riley in the list, but not Kubiak

Any list with multiple guys over Vrabel is a list you can wipe your azz with. Unfortunately i don’t think for a second Vrabel comes here without control of that roster and team and i don’t think Loomis and company hand that over. Ben Johnson isn’t coming here without it either. I don’t want Glenn at all.

I like Joe Brady he has Josh Allen playing great with less talent.


Josh Allen played great before Brady was there.

Chucky wouldn’t be my first choice, but he’s head and shoulders better than Allen. Plus it make Goodell super pissed. Bonus.

Remember that this is Vegas betting odds. They want to see who people will bet on.

Brady having the name cache in LA gets people to plunk down some cash.

Ben Johnson is everyone's favorite. He will get to choose what job he wants and it won't be our job.

He would pick Chicago, Jaguars, Dallas, the Jets, etc all before us. Teams with QBs or bigger jobs.

Johnson will absolutely not go to Dallas and deal with Jerry Jones and Dak Prescott and that contract. If they are on his list so will the saints. Same with the jets. Not sure the thinking behind the cowboys with Dak and Jerry along with the jets and Rodgers at his age 40 being on his list but the saints aren’t. Chicago yes, Jacksonville yes. But he will won’t full control of that roster. Which they should give him.

Is Loomis better? I just want him gone. We will be awful for a few years either way.

Dallas is a premiere job and Jerry really is probably not long for controlling things. The QB is under contract and has had success in the league. Def a better job than the Saints.

Jets while you are only maybe getting a year with ARod, its still ARod and then you can pick a QB, and you're in the largest market.

I honestly can't think of a job that is worse than ours. The Titans maybe? But they will likely be able to draft a QB.

You obviously haven't watched the Bills under any other OC. There's a reason that ever since they promoted Joe, he's taken it to another level while also losing all his weapons each year

Why is vrabel 5th? Dude had winning record 4 out of 6 seasons in tennessee with mariota and tannehill and levis at the helm. More impressive than what brady is doing


Ehh I guess cause he was just fired. I still think he would be a decent hire that’s why he’s on the list. But everyone wants to take a shot on a young OC. I personally wouldn’t mind Vrabel or Glenn. Hell I could probably get behind a Belichick rebuild then transition to Kubiak.
